ELECTROSURGICAL UNIT PSD-30
• Always have a defibrillator ready in case of a cardiac
emergency. During operation of the defibrillator, remove the
endoscope from the patient.
• To respond to possible patient bleeding, prepare at least the
following three hemostatic procedures: coagulation, clipping
and local injection.
• To prepare for possible accidents, emergency equipment for
life-saving, intubation and appropriate pharmaceuticals
should be located in or near the procedure room.
• Never attach the patient plate in the vicinity of a metal
implant. The tissue in the vicinity of the metal implant may be
burned.
• Keep the electrosurgical unit and ancillary cords (A-cord,
P cord, S-cord) as far away as possible from other
electromedical equipment and cords. If placed too close, high
frequency signals or spark discharge noise from the
electrosurgical unit may interfere with the operation of other
equipment.
• To prevent patient burns, the electrosurgical unit and ancillary
cords (A-cord, P cord, S-cord) should not come in contact
with the patient or metal parts of the operating table.
Furthermore, patients should also keep away from metallic
parts of the operating table or other devices.
• Never loop the cords (A-cord, P cord, S-cord) or bundle
cords together with cords belonging to other medical
equipment. The high frequency signals or spark discharge
noise generated by the electrosurgical unit may interfere with
the operation of other medical equipment.
• The electrosurgical unit may interfere with electromedical
equipment used in conjunction with it. Before use, thoroughly
confirm the compatibility of all the equipment.
• Do not bring the tip of the electrosurgical accessory close to
a metal clip or other accessories. The tissue around the
metal clip or the accessory may be burned.
• To prevent electric shock, the electrosurgical unit is designed
to function with insulated connectors that have Type CF
electromedical equipment classifications (A-cord, P cord,
P plate, S-cord). Therefore, to prevent shock caused by
leakage current from other electrical equipment applied to
the patient, the connectors from the other equipment should
not be grounded.
